Wegweiser Bachelor

Christoph Heinzelmann

Students of the Bachelor’s degree programme in Transport Economics must take focus modules from the 4th semester onwards. Three of the five possible specialisations must be selected.

So that you are well informed about the specialisations, there will be a Bachelor’s signposting on 19.01. at 11:10 a.m. in the POT 168 (Zeichensaal) and on 27.01. at 2:50 p.m. in the POT 151.

At the first event, the professors will inform you about the focal points of your degree programme.

At the second event, students will tell you about their experiences in the specialisations.

Both events will be held as hybrid events. This means that participants will be able to attend both from the university and via a BBB room.

Event at 19.01.2023:

Studying transport and traffic – What else!

Hosea Winter

Yes, you can study transport and traffic! Studyng transport and traffic at TU Dresden is versatile, exciting and future-oriented. Whether it’s climate protection, sustainability, liveable cities and communities or innovative technologies – you want to help shaping things and not just drive along? Then studying transport and traffic is just the right thing for you!

With these words and the new marketing film shown publicly for the first time on Uni Day 2022, our faculty will be promoting transport sciences at TU-Dresden in the future.

We as FSR-Verkehr are very pleased that we were able to support this great project in cooperation with the dean’s office and hope that the new marketing film is a building block to make our faculty more attractive and visible for new students.

We are looking for Student Program Coordinators and members of the Examination Board Mobility Systems

Patrick Hübner

Student Program Coordinators

Do you want to help improve the quality of your degree program?
Do you know where the problems lie and already have countless ideas on how to fix them?
Are you tired of waiting for something to change and want to see results during your studies?

For each degree program, a student program coordinator is appointed for one year during the summer semester. They are the link between the students and the university committees and the FSR. First and foremost, they deal with all matters relating to the degree program. They are your contact person for questions and problems relating to the quality of your degree program or teaching subject, as well as an advisory member of the study commission. Regardless of this, you can of course also contribute your own suggestions for improvement and implement them in cooperation with the academic degree program coordinator.

To this end, we are looking for a degree program coordinator for each degree program (MOVE Ba., VIW Dipl., VWI Ba., TEc Ma., EVS Ma., BSI Ma., LuLo/ATL Ma.). You can have this work credited as AQUA without a grade.

Enrollment for program coordinators is done via OPAL. Feel free to write to us for more information or simply drop by the FSR office in person.

Examination Board Mobility Systems

Two members are sought for the examination board for the new master’s program Mobility Systems (starting in October). The examination board primarily makes individual decisions regarding students. These may include, for example, applications for late exam registration, credit transfer for modules, and much more. You can register for this position at this link.

If you have any further questions about tasks, workload, or anything else, please feel free to contact us or send us a message!

Search for new student council members

Jasper Mörchen
  • You study and are member of our Student Body Traffic and Transportation Sciences “Friedrich List” at TU Dresden?
  • You are motivated to represent you fellow students’ interests?

Amazing! Than, you are perfect to declare your candidacy and run for member! The student council would be delighted to see diverse candidates. Whether you are motivated to organise events, administer general tasks, or to represent students’ interests towards university committees, or many other things: There are different opportunities and diverse people are needed to tackle these. Thereby, it does not matter, whether you are very experienced or want to learn something new. The same shall be said in regards to how long you already study: Ideally, all different semesters and other student groups would be represented fairly in the student council.

We’re convinced: To get engaged in student council is very rewarding. We enjoy doing something for our fellow students and to move our university. For example, the name of the new German Bachelor MOVE was highly influenced by student representatives. Also, you will meet a lot of lovely people, who make up the student council. So you’ll never have to be alone again. On top of all these fun bits, as a member of the student council, you can for example study longer, because of our so-called “Gremiensemester”.

How do you run?

Easy: You fill out this form and hand it in, either at the Stura directly, or at our student council office. For the latter it has to be there by the student councils meeting on Monday, 17th, so we can make sure, the form will be at the election committee in time.

If you’re still in doubt, or want further information, also take a look here, or contact us directly. We’re looking forward to get to know you!

Teaching Prize 2025

floriangau

The Faculty of Transport Sciences “Friedrich List” and the FSR Transport are once again awarding a teaching prize to honor particularly outstanding teaching.

Two teaching prizes will be awarded per academic year:

  • to a lecturer in undergraduate teaching
    (undergraduate course in Transport Engineering or Bachelor of Transport Economics)
  • to a lecturer in advanced teaching
    (advanced studies in transport engineering, Master’s degree courses)

The teaching prize of €250 each is expected to be awarded on the Faculty Day in November.

The award procedure is a two-stage process:

  1. In the first stage, you can nominate people and associated courses that you have attended in the past winter semester or are currently attending in the summer semester by July 13. From these nominations, we will then select the most frequently mentioned and those with the most meaningful reasons.
  2. In the second step, you can hold a vote between these nominations by July 27.

From the result of this run-off vote, we, as the FSR Transport, form a ranking for the award based on the ratio between the number of participants in the event and the nominations of the teacher, which we submit to the Faculty Council for a decision.

++++ Here you can nominate your teachers. ++++

We look forward to a high response rate so that the teaching award has a high significance and the results can be used to sustainably improve the quality of teaching at our faculty.

The survey can only be completed once. If you have any questions about the form, please contact us at fsrverkehr@tu-dresden.de.

Thank you for taking part!

Dear students,

How do you get to university – on foot, by bike, by bus and train or by car?

The survey on travel behavior of students at TUD, which has been running since 6 May, focuses primarily on your daily commute to university and your personal mobility constraints. Where do you see room for improvement?

By participating in the survey, you can ensure that students’ mobility needs are seen and heard.

The survey will run until 6 June 2025. You can find more information about the survey at https://tud.link/ryck7d.

All students (excluding the Faculty of Medicine) are eligible to participate. Please feel free to inform your fellow students about the survey.

Meeting point is on 21.05.25 at 11.00 am in the foyer of the Potthoff building (in front of the FSR office / POT 12). The game is played in small teams, one team member needs WhatsApp. We look forward to seeing you!

Kompass Hauptstudium 2025

Jannis Raabe

Liebe VIW-Viertsemester,

nach diesem Semester beginnt für euch das Hauptstudium und ihr müsst eine
Vertiefungsrichtung für euch wählen.
Mit dieser für euren weiteren Studienverlauf und euer Berufsleben wegweisenden
Entscheidung lassen wir euch natürlich nicht allein.
Im Rahmen der Veranstaltungsreihe “Kompass Hauptstudium”, die wir gemeinsam mit
Spätverkehr und unserer Fakultät durchführen, möchten wir euch die einzelnen
Vertiefungsrichtungen aus verschiedenen Perspektiven vorstellen und dafür sorgen, dass
keine Fragen offen bleiben und ihr bestens informiert eure Vertiefung wählen und ins
Hauptstudium starten könnt!

Die drei Informationsveranstaltungen finden jeweils im POT/361 um 14.50 Uhr statt:

– Montag, 12. Mai: Vorstellung der Vertiefungen durch die Studienrichtungsleitenden
– Montag, 19. Mai: Studis des 8. Semesters stellen vor, wie ihre Vertiefung wirklich ist
– Montag, 2. Juni: Perspektiven nach dem Studium – Absolvent:innen erzählen, was man mit
dem Studium später anfangen kann

Unabhängig von der Vertiefungswahl überlegen vielleicht auch einige von euch, im Laufe
ihres Hauptstudiums ein Auslandssemester zu absolvieren. Dort werden Herr Dr. Krieg und
Herr Dr. Schade von unserer Fakultät sowie Frau Dr. Eisenlöffel aus dem International
Office euch mit allen Informationen versorgen, die ihr zum Studieren im Ausland braucht.
Der Termin für diese Veranstaltung ist noch in Klärung.

Eine weitere Veranstaltung ist geplant, um euch über die neue Studienordnung zu
informieren, die zum Wintersemester in Kraft treten soll. Eine zentrale Änderung besteht
darin, dass die Grundstudiumsnoten nicht mehr in die Endnote einfließen. Was sich noch
ändert und wie ihr übertreten könnt, erfahrt ihr an diesem Termin ebenfalls im POT/361:

– Montag, 16. Juni, 14:50 – 16:20 Uhr: Informationsveranstaltung zum Übertritt in die
neuen Ordnungen.

Alle Folien der Veranstaltungen werden wir euch in diesem OPAL-Kurs bereitstellen:
https://bildungsportal.sachsen.de/opal/auth/RepositoryEntry/49407492104?4

Wir freuen uns auf euer Kommen!
